Princess Rui seized the opportunity to make a fuss about the matter. She immediately found an excuse and led a group of clan women to the room where the incident occurred.

Prince Su gave Princess Su a look, signaling her to hurry up and check it out. Xiao Ji Chen was nowhere to be found at the moment, and the male guests outside still needed his entertainment.

Princess Su was indeed a martial artist, she was very fast and soon caught up with Princess Rui and her female relatives.

"Sixth sister-in-law is so anxious, could something shameful have happened?" Princess Rui became sarcastic when she saw Princess Su.

The late emperor had eight sons and four princesses.

Emperor Jingzhao was the second oldest, Prince Su was the sixth, and Prince Rui was the seventh.

Princess Su tightened her grip on the maid's hand and forced a faint smile, "Sister-in-law, if someone doesn't know, they would think you are hoping something bad will happen to my Su Palace."

Princess Rui rolled her eyes at Princess Su in her heart, but she still maintained a false harmony on the surface.

"Sixth sister-in-law, you are too worried. I am also worried about you. After all, His Majesty has just given you a disaster star as your daughter-in-law, which is bad enough. If something happens in the mansion again, wouldn't it be adding insult to injury?"

Princess Rui's words were a naked mockery. The ladies of the clan behind her all had more or less gloating expressions on their faces, but because of Princess Su's status, they had been trying their best to endure and join Princess Rui in taking advantage of her misfortune.

Princess Su saw all the hypocritical faces of these people. If she had her old temper, she would have swung out her red tasseled spear.

But since she married Prince Su, in order not to affect her husband's plans, she has suppressed her thorns and learned to endure again and again.

When she returned to the capital this time, Prince Su repeatedly told her to control her temper and not to cause trouble, so as to avoid causing trouble and arousing Emperor Jingzhao's suspicion.

So she didn't get angry, and still had that decent smile on her face, "Is my daughter-in-law a disaster? I really don't know. But when I was in the vassal state, I heard that an epidemic broke out in the capital, and my daughter-in-law who hadn't married yet saved a lot of people. I wonder if she was one of you?"

Princess Su's gentle words made the group of women who were waiting to laugh at her look embarrassed.

Princess Rui seemed to remember that when she almost lost her life, it was Xiao Nanchuan who went to Baicaotang to buy medicine and saved her.

But so what? It's not like she didn't pay the money. As a doctor, it's Su Yunling's job to treat illnesses and save lives.

She absolutely could not lose to this rough and fierce woman who only knew how to wield a knife or a gun.

"No wonder Sixth Brother and Sixth Sister-in-law happily accepted this arranged marriage. They think of Princess Hemin as a treasure, don't they? You may not know that Princess Hemin is well-known in the whole of Shangjing for her coarse and unruly temper. Speaking of which, she is somewhat like you when you were young, Sixth Sister-in-law!"

"This is what they mean if we are not from the same family, we will not enter the same door! This is also fate." A lady in the crowd who was on good terms with Princess Rui spoke up at the right time.

Although both are princesses, one is the wife of the younger brother of the current emperor, and the other is the wife of a prince who was not favored by the emperor and was deliberately "exiled" to a poor vassal state.

They appear to be of the same rank, but in reality their status is very different.

So these people were naturally willing to stand with Princess Rui and ridicule Princess Su.

Princess Su pinched her knuckles hard and endured it. "I don't need you to worry about what kind of person my daughter-in-law is. You should just take care of your own backyards!"

Princess Rui was obviously dissatisfied when she saw that she was not angry at all, and she started to speak in a sarcastic tone:

"Aiya! Sixth sister-in-law, although the fiefdom has become a little difficult and you no longer have the beauty you once had, your temper has really improved a lot. This is really enviable."

"Yes, not getting angry is priceless..."

"Princess, something's wrong—" An anxious voice broke the sarcastic laughter of a group of women.

When Princess Rui was about to hold back her laughter by picking up her handkerchief, she was surprised to find that the person running towards her was actually her own personal guard.

Sure enough, the man came straight towards her.

She couldn't help but look terrified, "What happened?"

"It's the prince, the prince is in trouble..."

When Princess Rui heard that her son was in trouble, her face turned pale and she rushed forward and ran away as fast as she could.

Although the group of women behind didn't know what exactly happened, they still followed.

Princess Su also quickened her pace, and when they arrived at the door of the wing room, she was stunned by the scene inside.

Fortunately, all those present were clan wives and there were no unmarried girls, otherwise they would have seen something they shouldn't have seen, which would have tarnished their reputation.

Even the experienced wives of the clan blushed when they saw this scene.

On the bed, two white bodies were entangled tightly together and could not be pulled apart.

The man on top was none other than Princess Rui's proud son Xiao Nanchuan, and the woman below was not Su Yunling as she had expected, but Su Yueying, the Holy Maiden of Great Yin.

The most explosive thing is that when the two were making peace, there were three spectators squatting under the window next to them with excited faces.

Princess Rui was anxious and angry, she spread her arms and tried to block everyone's view.

"Don't look... Don't look... Get out of here..."

Emperor Jing Zhao was already angry because Xiao Nanchuan and Su Yueying were too close, and now the two of them were rolling together. If Emperor Jing Zhao found out and suspected that Prince Rui's Mansion had any rebellious intentions... the consequences would be disastrous.

The emperor can tolerate his brother's lawlessness outside, but he can never tolerate him coveting his kingdom.

The wives of the clan all thought of this, and the look they gave Princess Rui suddenly became strange.

When you finish singing, I will appear.

Princess Su thought of Princess Rui's expression just now, and she had to vent her anger first.

Princess Su covered her chest with her hands, looking shocked. "Seventh brother's sister, I thought the rumors were false, but I didn't expect Qing An to really have feelings for the Saint! What should I do? The Saint is the future Crown Prince's consort!"

Her words touched Princess Rui's heart, making her already anxious mood even more unstable.

He immediately ordered someone to return to the palace to inform Queen Rui of the news, and then turned to Princess Su and said viciously:

"Yin Daiqiong, stop gloating over my son's misfortune. My son's accident happened in your Su Palace. Can you get away with it? This was clearly planned by you!!!"

"Seventh brother's wife, be careful with your words. If you accuse someone without evidence, you will lose your precious status. It's obvious that the two of them were drunk and couldn't control their feelings."

Princess Rui's eyes were red with anger. "Nonsense! They were obviously drugged by love potions. The drug might have been given by your good daughter-in-law. Otherwise, why would she not dare to show up until now?"

"Who is calling me? Is something wrong?" Su Yunling's weak voice came from behind the crowd.

She had changed her clothes, the ends of her hair were a little wet, and her face looked particularly pale. If she hadn't been supported by her two maids, she would have been knocked down by a gust of wind.

Princess Su frowned, looking surprised, "What's going on? What happened?"

Linglan stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Reporting to the princess, the county lady felt dizzy and hot after drinking a little while ago. It was really unbearable, so she asked someone to find a bathroom to soak in cold water, which is why she is in this state now."

Princess Su's expression changed. "What? If this is the case, why didn't you report it earlier? We need to find the imperial physician to take a look..."

There was an uproar at the scene. All those present were the mistresses of wealthy and powerful families. Whose house wasn't filled with conspiracies and intrigues all the time?

In Su Yunling's situation, there was a high probability that someone had drugged her.

Just now Princess Rui was still saying that it was Su Yunling who drugged Xiao Nanchuan, but if Su Yunling herself was also drugged, then she would naturally be cleared of suspicion.

Princess Rui was of course unwilling to give up, and immediately pointed at Su Yunling and angrily accused:

"She must be pretending. If she was really drugged, how could she be so clear-headed? That's an aphrodisiac used by animals..."
